Ghent itself, often overlooked in favour of its more famous neighbours, offers visitors a less-crowded and altogether more authentic Easter experience, paired with all the fairytale charm of year-round draws, from Gravensteen Castle – with its medieval architecture – to picturesque canals and a diverse arts scene. And all this is paired with a large dose of a traditional Flemish foodie scene, family-friendly atmosphere and an easily traversed layout.
Price: From £321 for a two-night stay…
